Happy Holidays from BBR!

BBR to Play the Boston Pops

The Back Bay Ringers have just been selected as a guest artist to play with the Boston Pops at their Holiday Gala on December 7, 2016! We are busy rehearsing and shining up our bells for this fabulous event and wanted to share the great news with our loyal friends!

BBR Appears on NECN

BBR was featured Thursday, November 24 during the 9pm NECN broadcast. See the video clip for highlights from BBR’s holiday concert, “An English Christmas” and an interview with Artistic Director Griff Gall. NECN’s Jackie Bruno even got a handbell lesson from BBR musician Greg Urban.

Back Bay Ringers Perform at the 2016 National Handbell Seminar

The ensemble performed a solo concert at Handbell Musicians of America National Seminar in Rochester, NY in July. It was a great honor to be invited, and we were delighted to present our “Art of Handbell Ringing” program for the wonderful musicians gathered there!

The Whitechapels are back!!!

Pictured here are our three octaves of Whitechapel handbells, out of their cases, and ready for their debut this past summer at National Seminar. They are wonderful! Many thanks to all of the contributors to our successful capital campaign — we couldn’t have done it without you!
